A Dwarf Priest

Patch 2.3 will be coming out this Tuesday (or so it is scheduled). There are many new items from raiding. Below is a summary of the new items from Zul Aman and from badge rewards.

These are my “quick pick” items of note:

For Shadowpriests, from Zul’Aman:

• Keep an eye out for the two one-handed weapons with 217 spell damage (Amani Punisher and Wub’s Cursed Hexblade)
• Fury of the Ursine is really nice for a wrist slot (such a tough slot to fill!).
• The Hex Shrunken Head trinket is great upgrade over Icon of the Silver Crescent.
• For rings, Mana-Attuned Band and Signet of Ancient Magics (it has a socket!) both have great stats.

For Shadowpriests, from the new badge rewards:

• The Studious Wraps have a good amount of spell damage, and are pretty much in line with T6.
• The Carved Witch Doctor’s Stick will be the best wand in the game for you.

For healbot priests, from Zul’Aman:

• The Brooch of Nature’s Mercy has a good amount of +heal for you.
• If you are looking +heal upgrades, Dark Blessing, a 1H Mace, will give you 431!
• Signet of the Quiet Forest is easily one of the best rings, with good solid stats.
• The Two-toed Sandals have good healing stats, two sockets to customize, and some funny flavor text.

For healbot priests, from the badge rewards:

• The new gloves, Light-Blessed Bonds, have a good amount of healing and spirit, and two sockets to customize.
• It is nice to see an off-hand like Voodoo Shaker with nice +heal, and solid stats.
• The Wristguards of Tranquil Thought have to be one of the best wrist pieces in the game for healer priests.
